Chapter 244
He released a small blood vine towards the woman’s cheek, leaving a faint bloodstain.
“I have limited patience.” Xu Zirong said coldly.
The woman lowered her head silently, gently massaged her face with her pale fingers a few times, and when she raised her head again, she revealed an innocent and beautiful face.
Xu Zirong narrowed his eyes slightly, and a small blood vine swayed back and forth beside the woman, “I told you that I have no patience. If you still don’t show your true face, I’ll leave a scar on it.”
There was suddenly a look of surprise on her face. She learned this disguising spell from a broken magic spell. According to her master, the magic spell was obtained from the ancient battlefield; there was only one piece in the entire Xuan Yu realm. So, how did the gorgeous man in front of her notice that she hadn’t shown her true face?
Xu Zirong was silent and stopped speaking. The other three felt that the atmosphere was strange and they dared not speak either.
After a few seconds of confrontation, Xu Zirong began to lose patience just as he said. The blood vines surrounding the woman swayed excitedly from side to side, and many of them even evolved with some tiny burrs. If Xu Zirong hit her face with these vines, he’d surely scrap off a large part of the flesh.
The woman refused to give up, but the situation didn’t allow her to play anymore tricks. She could only gently rub her face a few times. And when she raised her head again, she completely revealed her true face.
It was a very beautiful face. She had bright, watery eyes and full lips. She’s full of female charm and was a stunning beauty.
Wei Qing and Le Hu looked at this woman, then looked at each other. Since this woman was so gorgeous herself, why the need to disguise herself as Xu Zirong?
Xu Zirong sneered, “those little tricks of yours are useless for me. Your master, the Apolar Witch, Xi Yayu, wouldn’t have such a useless disciple.”
Although Wei Qing and Le Hu despised the woman a little, they instantly had goosebumps all over their bodies upon hearing about the Apolar Witch.
This Apolar Witch, Xi Yayu, was the head of the Xuanyin sect, a sect of demon cultivation. She had always been known for her viciousness, especially when it was about dealing with men. She might have been deceived by men when she was young, as she had a hobby of seducing those married ones.
With her stunning appearance, most men couldn’t control themselves. However, she would get tired after only a few days, and the private parts of these guys would be cut off and she’d keep them somewhere…
Although no one was sure whether this woman had the same hobby, they could very well speculate that she’s not as innocent as she seemed, given that her master was the Apolar Witch.
The woman no longer pretended to look pitiful after her identity was revealed. She stood straight and stared at them with firm eyes, “if that’s the case…”
However, before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Xu Zirong.
“I don’t care why you’re here, no matter what you’re going to do, stay away from us.” Xu Zirong waved his hand impatiently, as if the person standing in front of him wasn’t a stunning beauty, but an annoying fly.
Xi Yanliu, who had never been treated like this, was shocked. She had never seen a man who treated her so rudely. She raised her eyebrows with interest.
Xu Ziyan watched coldly and found that this woman seemed to be very interested in Zirong. He felt a little unhappy for some reason.
“You can see how small this place is. No matter where I want to go, I cannot stay that far, right?” Xi Yanliu smiled slightly and her eyes looked a bit flattering.
Xu Zirong wasn’t affected by it at all. He just glanced at her coldly, “I don’t care where you hide, stay at least three feet away from me, I don’t want to be tricked by you.”
Xi Yanliu’s pupils shrank suddenly and she felt overwhelmingly shocked.
The strychnineon on her wrist was made by her master with various ingredients and painstakingly tailor-made for her. Those familiar with it only knew that it was her weapon, but no one had realized that the biggest use of it would be using it as a hidden bullet.
The shooting range of this strychnineon was a little more than two feet. Xu Zirong didn’t want to be ambushed and he thus told the woman to stay three feet away from him.
Xi Yanliu didn’t know how this person knew her secret, but she was a bit scared of Xu Zirong by now. She let Xu Zirong bypass her and walk into the depth of the hall. She breathed a long sigh of relief until the blood vines around her all withered and she wiped the cold sweat on her forehead.
Seeing Xu Zirong and the others, Xi Yanliu snorted in disapproval.
She arrived there earlier than these people, and had already visited the entire hall. There was nothing extra in this hall except for a few one-way teleportation arrays. She didn’t believe that they could find the exit if she couldn’t after so much effort of searching.
She picked a clean place randomly and treated her wounded areas. Xi Yanliu watched the four people circling around in the hall, as if she was watching a show.
Then, she really saw a good show…
“We have a secret door here.” The cold voice of Xu Zirong was like thunder in her ears.
She couldn’t figure out why she had found nothing after searching the entire hall for two days, but this person already found a secret door after just arriving there. Wouldn’t that be too unbelievable?
“The door is hidden in the wall, and there is a magic array here for disguise.” Xu Zirong explained softly to his brother.
Xu Ziyan didn’t really care. Anyway, he understood nothing about magic arrays, it’s important as long as Xu Zirong did.
Everyone looked at the place Xu Zirong instructed, and under his percussion, a layer of faint ripples appeared on the wall.
“Can we break this?” Wei Qing asked.
Xu Zirong distinguished it carefully for a while and his facial expression became a little sophisticated.
He didn’t speak but opened his lips a bit.
Wei Qing suddenly looked at Xu Zirong in surprise.
“We’ll talk about it later, let’s continue searching.” Xu Zirong pouted in the direction of Xi Yanliu, and the others understood and nodded in agreement.
Since Xi Yanliu heard Xu Zirong say that there was a secret door, she had been eavesdropping. Unexpectedly, this guy didn’t explain further after saying that the door was covered with an array, making her so annoyed.
At this moment, there was a burst of light from the teleportation array, and another person was teleported to this hall.
After waking up from the teleportation, the female cultivator became extra vigilant.
Now the situation in this hall became very clear. On one side, there was an injured female cultivator, and on the other side, there were four male cultivators together. The newly arrived female cultivator hesitated and did not go to either of them. Instead, she found an inconspicuous corner and stayed there quietly.
Xu Ziyan glanced at the newly arrived female cultivator, only to feel that this person seemed to be familiar, but he couldn’t remember where he had seen her. Then, he continued looking for the hidden door in the hall.
According to Xu Zirong’s method, a few of them kept testing the wall, but they soon learned some very frustrating news – this hall not only had secret doors, but there were actually 18 of them.
Xu Ziyan didn’t think that these secret doors were all right exits. He wouldn’t be surprised if some of them actually led to death.
Just when everyone was depressed because there were too many secret doors to choose from, the teleportation arrays around the hall actually flickered one after another.
After a few flashes, a figure appeared in the hall. After observing the form in the hall, these people searched for their companions of the same sect and rested in a corner.
Xu Ziyan glanced at those people, most of them already had the cultivation level of the middle stage of Qi condensation. Also, all of them were injured, and it seemed that they had experienced extremely fierce battles.
These people looked depressed. Their eyes looked gloomy, and even several female cultivators had red eyes. They’d obviously been crying.
Among them, a cultivator in a blue robe was earnestly consoling a female cultivator who was crying extremely sadly. When he saw that person, Xu Ziyan’s pupils shrank!
It’s Gao Yi!
Sometimes, you don’t really have to search everywhere for the stuff you want. He was originally scared that the True Dragon maze was huge and there’s no opportunity for them to meet. He really didn’t expect to have seen him there.
“Brother, shall I kill him?” Xu Zirong asked softly.
Xu Ziyan squeezed his hand secretly and shook his head, “it’s not the right time yet. These cultivators seem to be with him. If we provoke him out of no reason, we’ll surely be beaten up.”
“We’ll just kill them all.”
Xu Ziyan was speechless for a while. He shouldn’t have forgotten that his little brother’s true nature. It really wasn’t a problem for him to kill some people.
“It’s not necessary.” Xu Ziyan persuaded him in a low voice.
He looked at Gao Yi’s “busy” figure and squinted slightly, “we’re really unsure of the situation of the True Dragon maze. We’ll solve this problem when we get to a safe place.”
Xu Zirong glanced at Gao Yi silently, and marked this person as a target in his notebook.
Everyone stayed in the hall for a while, and soon some more clever cultivators began to look for other exits in the hall.
Now, everyone was sure that there’s something wrong with the maze. They just weren’t sure how big the issue was.
There were only about twenty people in the hall and they could very well be survivors of the maze.
Those who entered the hall with Gao Yi soon had a dispute, Xu Ziyan listened for a while. Soon, he showed a speechless look.
It turned out that these people were not very familiar with each other at all, and they began to know each other after trying to escape from danger together.
More and more people gathered. They originally thought that they would be able to show their talents in this maze, but the more numerous they got, the more monsters they saw. Once, they even met a griffin monster of golden core.
Although the golden core griffin was only a young monster, it still took three people to kill it.
